I doubt this will effect the next Diamonds and Dirt very much. They announced at this years race that the 2016 D&DBHC will be held at the same place, during the same weekend in 2017.  Of couse this was prior to this news but I imagine plans and contracts for the barrel race have been made far in advance.

The main sponsor at D&D this year was Dufor.  Not Schillers.

Well... The price of oil has dropped so much, you HAD to know this was coming... I remember the price of regular gas at 19 cents/gallon in the early 70s gas wars... The oil companies have realized the alternative power sources are about to cause them big problems....

What the hell are you talking about?

if your talking about the low crude prices, just about everyone in the world saw it coming unless they had their heads in the sand. 

If your talking about your wild arse claim that alternative energy was spelling problems for big oil you could not be more wrong.

Doesnt mean anything, especially not at a personal level for Schiller. This is happening with alot of companies across the scale of the oil field. They are just getting themselves out of "debt" from purchases they made that are not valued nearly as high now, which they can do by decalring. Hedges on oil are just now running out, up until now most were still getting paid at the higher oil prices and are having to re-evaluate. Its insane what you can do to get out of bad deals that you made.

By using the legal system - they are doing nothing wrong.  The laws were voted into place by people we all elected.

You're claiming that Burry(a dr. and a hedge fund manager) is more knowlegable and credible as an Economist than arguably one of the foremost Economists of the 20th century. 

Correct?

you could use that same basic rational to make the claim that Superman was a much more bad azz superhero than Batman because he could fly without a plane.


Once again, Burry is/was a Dr. and a Hedgefund manager. NOT AND ECONOMIST.

 litterally everyone in the world of finance that wasn't blind. 


You seem to have the idea that this price downturn was some sort of surprise? It wasn't, the only surprise was the fact that it happened a couple of months before it was predicted to happen. 

Also, just because a fund manager does his job and times the market right does not make him an Eco Wiz nor does it support your wild azz claim that Big oil was running scared from alternative energy.
